spray all ground points with crc66 and did you check continuity along wires? If they look good, they probably are, but measuring sh'ts a good idea too.
If the old plugs look good, keep em. Did you gap the new ones properly? .05mm wont kill it and give you a bigger spark if the rest of ign in good condition
comp test will tell you whats happning in #1.
If its just lights on the dash, it could be a ground up in behind it. The park brake light shouldnt be, but may have cought/crushd the wire

Yes I measured all the wires from the beginning to the end it several points in between I stab them. I was talking to a guy at work that Dr nothing but Mitsubishi and he said that there is a gasket at the top of the plug wire that tends to get worn out over time and that could be my issue with the oil getting into number one anybody ever heard of this before? If so you got any recommendations on where to buy the gaskets?

Oil killed your alternator?
so new to the form new Mitsubishi owner just bought a "cheap" 2003 Outlander and maybe regretting it already. the battery light and brake light come on and stay on the alternator seems to be working properly and was check with a multi-meter and is working properly I can disconnect the battery while car is running and it continues to run... I've cleaned all the wires and terminals that I can see I'm curious if maybe anyone has experience with this.. this is my first foreign build car I've ever owned always owned Buicks ( roadmasters).. Also today for the first time had an issue starting it after it was warm it felt like the fuel pump was going in it but it seems to run fine once I got it going it would start and stall about 4 times before I was able to keep it going..? Help!! I'm assuming it must be electrical but looking for some advice on how to troubleshoot it down
